Trump Kicks Off Iowa ‘Blitz,’ Looking to Clinch First GOP Contest

Former President Donald Trump is lining up his 2024 campaign "blitz," as he promised previously.

On Dec. 21, the former president announced that he would make two back-to-back appearances, both on Jan. 5,  in northern Iowa.

First, he is set for a 4 p.m. speech at Dordt University, a Christian college campus in tiny Sioux Center, a city near the state’s western boundary.A "commit-to-caucus" rally in that small city of about 8,500 people will serve as "the kickoff of a larger blitz across the state of Iowa," his campaign said in a news release.

Then he will head about 150 miles northeast to Mason City, population 27,000, where he's slated to make remarks at 7:30 p.m. at the North Iowa Events Center.
